Gerbils are healthy animals. They are also easy to maintain. But they do encounter health issues at some point. Here are some of them:
● A gerbil’s tail may break off when it is improperly handled.
● A gerbil can get injured when it falls from a high spot. Its bones may break from the fall.
● Gerbils can get heat stress or heat stroke. When they are under immense heat, they can become lethargic, might experience trembling. They may even die from too much heat. To prevent heatstroke and heat stress from happening, make sure that the enclosure is well-ventilated.
● A gerbil may have convulsions if it is shocked or dropped roughly.
● These are some of the health issues that need to be addressed immediately. Don't let complications develop because it can end in something fatal.
Any sign of illness exhibited by your pet should prompt a call to your veterinarian Virginia Beach VA.
